    What a beautiful labor of love. She and her kids will love them. You did a fantastic job of picking different but appropriate patterns. Love them all.

    WOW! All of your quilts are beautiful and how kind of you do may treasures for your friend. I bet your friend keeps the one with the dress pattern. That would seem so appropriate for her to have memories of her Mom wearing those dresses.

    All are so special. I was surprised that you'd have enough fabric from the dresses to do 4 quilts. What a wonderful legacy the children are getting thanks to your generosity of helping your friend.
